Quoc Thien, Huong Tram - 2 champions compete fiercely

Singers Quoc Thien and Huong Tram - two champions and representative vocalists of Vietnamese music - unexpectedly clashed when they released products together on the evening of November 11.

Quoc Thien continuously spends money to make "huge" products

MV Fake Moonlight is Quoc Thien's product this year, directed by Dinh Ha Uyen Thu.

The song was composed by Nguyen Phuc Thien - who understands Quoc Thien's voice and feelings - "tailor-made" for the male singer.

The author uses the image of "moonlight" as a metaphor for "false reflection" - where people see what they want to believe instead of the truth that exists. The title of the poem False Moonlight is the awakening, realizing that one is caught up in an emotional illusion.

The song has a modern electronic pop color. The slow rhythm gradually expands the space, filling each verse with emotion. Quoc Thien does not show off his technique but is restrained, focusing on expressing his inner feelings.

The MV tells a love story metaphorically through the image of a mirror - a silent witness of love and betrayal.

Quoc Thien plays the role of a mirror who falls in love with a girl. Every day he looks at her, following her from when she was radiantly beautiful until she became miserable because her boyfriend betrayed her.

At the end of the MV, the girl broke the mirror out of despair. Both she and Quoc Thien were broken - or the tragedy of the person involved and the bystander.

Director Dinh Ha Uyen Thu impressed by bringing cinematic language to the MV. This is also the rare time she has directed a MV after many years.

The visuals of the MV are minimal, concise and rich in symbolism. The story is told entirely through light, mirrors and character movements.

The MV "Fake Moonlight" and the previous product - Suddenly Become a Stranger are both intended to promote the live concert SKYNOTE 2025 which will take place on the evening of November 22 with a scale of about 10,000 spectators.

Huong Tram plays with a younger handsome man

After 5 years of living and studying in the US, Huong Tram officially returned to music . The song "Wishing you many sorrows" was composed by musician Hung Quan, and belongs to the pop ballad genre, which is the singer's forte.

When receiving the draft, the 9X singer was attracted by the interesting theme of the song: the pain and hatred of a girl hurt in love.

Although the song's somewhat negative lyrics made Huong Tram and her team consider, in the end she still chose to cherish the emotional fragments and the author's genuine repression.

According to the singer, the song's content may be controversial, but if you listen carefully, you will realize that the character "you" in the song will not hate anyone for the rest of her life. It's all just a slice of a very "real" human emotion.

Huong Tram said that when she first opened the draft of this song, the whole crew was shocked, it was completely different from the lyrical songs the female singer had performed.

However, she realized that these somewhat realistic lyrics were suitable for contemporary audiences, especially Generation Z. This made her decide to try something she had never done before in her career.

In the MV, Huong Tram plays the role of a girl who was betrayed by her boyfriend (Tran Ngoc Vang) because of a third person (Lan Thy). Throughout the MV is the girl's journey of taking revenge on those who made her suffer, but the ending has a surprising "turn".

Huong Tram was most impressed by the scene where the girl walked through the chaos, opened the door to the room and discovered her boyfriend was cuddling with someone else right in the place filled with memories between the two of them.

"I think if that happened in real life, the pain would be immense. People, especially women, will have moments of weakness and need to express themselves, even if only for a moment. We should never try to hide our weakness. Let's just release all our mixed emotions because we are normal people," the singer confided.
